Two questions:

1. I really wish there was a charging indicator? When I plug it in, I want to know it's plugged in without turning on the screen. Anyway to change that? I'm not rooted yet, so prob not, but I figured this is the place to ask.

2. Is there a way to set the talk app to sync? That is, sometimes I'm chatting on gchat at my work computer. then I leave and I continue conversation on my phone (HTC Dinc). My HTC syncs all the conversations so I have the full history of this session, but my xoom doesn't.

thanks!
[Xoom General] robrowald:
1. The charging indicator only lights up if the device is powered off.

2. My Gtalk conversations sync up properly when moving from device to device. I see it all on my Xoom, my Droid x and my PC
[Xoom General] keitht:
1. You can set the screen to not turn off when charging and the lock screen will show the battery level and "Charging" when it is charging. The screen will dim but not completely turn off which is acceptable to me.

2. Dunno, never used it.But Trillian does this and works on the Xoom.
[Xoom General] lanternca:
Gtalk syncs fine on my dinc, but not my xoom. Is there a specific setting? Did you do anything or did it just work?

Once you have have the factoryfs.rfs file how do you use this to flash the phone back?

I used this method to take a copy of the factory firmware before flashing a ROM. I can see in the TAR file used in the ROM I flashed has other RFS files as well.
[Galaxy 3 General] stubborn_d0nkey:
flash it
[Galaxy 3 General] astrae:
Hi Stubborn_d0nkey,

Thanks but I'm a bit of a noob at this. How exactly do you setup odin to do it as odin wants tar files and when using "one package" that tar combines lots of rfs files.

Can you explain step by step :-)

thanks
[Galaxy 3 General] Kaleptik:
Download Total Commander and add it to a .tar file.

This is becoming interesting. So one could dd all the mount points and flash it back, or dd it back in download mode.

Which block devices should you backup ? To what rfs files do they correspond ?

Another question I have : where are the mount points defined ? I couldn't locate an fstab.

No. You dd back in normal mode.

[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] davemw2:
Hello all! After seeing my vibrant mod'd a buddy wants me to mod his hd2. I've researched alot in these forums and can't really decifer what way to go or what rom to choose.

I am leaning towards an sd installation. It seems easily reversable just in case something goes wrong and im not trying to brick a phone here. The vibrant is probly the easiest phone to mod and impossible to brick.

I know opinions vary and im not trying to create a pissing match here. im going for speed. Speed and reliability more than anything. So that once I boot the custom rom on to his device there wont be any glitches that pulling the battery wont fix. Thanks for your responses. *** no a holes please either, just some positive input and pros and cons of the different types of installations.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
welcome to HD2 :)

I know coming to mod a new phone can be kind of a pain even if you're a pro on another, I had the same thing rooting, S-Off, flashing a ROM, and changing PRL to get a Dinc on Cricket (I'm on GSM...) so I know how ti goes.

Android on HD2 is different from any other phone. actually flashing to NAND is safer than any other phone because it is basically impossible to brick, here's why:

When you flash HSPL (hard SPL that is a modified bootloader with security off so you can flash custom ROMs and radios) you then flash another bootloader on top of it, called MAGLDR. This new bootloader allows you to flash WP7 to NAND, run Android off SD, or flash Android to NAND, it also has CWM support when flashed into it.

If anything ever goes wrong you can always load back into HSPL and just flash a stock WM ROM over MAGLDR and you're good, so it's an awesome fail safe.

My current set-up is WP7 on NAND and a very good, stable, awesome, fast CM7 ROM on SD, you can choose which you want to boot into when you turn it on.

I haven't used this tutorial but it looks simple and very easy to understand

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=944288

If you JUST want Android I'd suggest going NAND with this ROM, it's a pretty awesome gingerbread ROM with some CM7 mods and other awesome features. Fast, stable, working everything, and the chef is really great with updates and support.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=918899

edit:

The only real way to brick this phone is to flash the wrong radio. To be on the safe side, do not flash any radio below 2.07.50.

The best radios I have found for Android are 2.12.50, 2.14.50, and 2.15.50, (the 2.15.50 being the best)

The best radio for WP7 seems to be 2.12.50.

Check the radio thread in HD2 WM development for the radio list and how to flash.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Orangeskid's 100% correct. The HD2 is probably one of the hardest phones to brick and there's no real point just going for SD because you're afraid to brick it as you won't.

Just make sure if its a TMo phone that you don't flash a .51 radio. That'll kill it. :D

Just flash 2.08.HSPL then a 2.15.50.14 radio. After that all you need to do is flash MAGLDR then Clockwork. I recommend a CM7 as they are definetly the fastest ROMs out there.

It's actually so much easier than a native Android device like a G2 *cough*. :p
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] davemw2:
Thanks guys! I think ill try the nand way of things. At first glance it looks so damn intimidating, theres so many steps!

A few questions:

Does whatever radio i decide to flash conflict with any certain roms?(i was looking at the link you provided and thats probly what im going to use but it didnt say anything anywhere about radios)

And Is a custom kernel reccomended... Is it that much better than stock? (on the vibrant it makes a huge deal thats why im asking)

Overclocking: is it essential to overclock these devices and if so is the program on these phones setcpu? Or antother one? And is it ok to set on boot?

LOL! One last Q for now: After everythings said and done and installed is it ok to hit reboot from the power menu or would the user have to shut down and then power back on?

**all these questions are reffering to NAND**
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
No the radio doesn't. Just use the 2.15.50.14 one and you'll be fine. All the suitable kernels are built in to the Rom so you don't really have to worry about that. SetCPU is choice but I don't think there's any need but if you want the extra speed you can. Set on boot works too AFAIK. :) oh and yeah reboot will work properly. It's recommended to shut down and start again though. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
none of the radios above 2.12.50 seem to have any conflicts as far as I can tell.

Overclocking is pointless IMO, if your ROM doesn't work smooth as hell on 998mhz then the ROM is fubar and you should get another one. No sense putting your hardware at risk.

All kernels are "custom" since there is no official Android on HD2 build, I would just stay with whichever kernel comes in the ROM, the chefs here generally know what they are doing as far as which kernel to use. Tytung's kernel seems to be the best at the moment IMO for NAND.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] davemw2:
One more question guys... thanks for all the info and guidance. Im in the usa and useing the tmobile hd2 am wondering if all the roms or more specspecifically the rom you gave me the link too work for that phone? Thanks again.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] orangekid:
everything works on all HD2s except you can flash a .51 radio on the euro version. This is obsolete since you won't be flashing anything below 2.12.50 anyways (or there's no reason for you to). Also some WM6.5 roms may be euro only.

So any Android ROM you see in the NAND or SD dev you can flash to any HD2 and be fine, and actually you have the advantage here. You see, the TMOUSA HD2 has 1gb ROM instead of the 512 in the Euro, so this means you can flash the Desire HD roms on NAND without having to squash everything and go thru a lot of ext parition drama, unless you still want to.

short answer is this: Flash whatever Android ROM you want, you're good to go.

edit: also note some ROMs have a tmo version and euro version, these are just optimized with APNs and set up to work with the network better, if you get a choice go with tmo, if not then that's fine too.

And you need to find the latest radio for your phone possibly one that worked with windows mobile 6.51. Before you ask which one ..I have to say that I won't be able to help you as I don't own a vogue. I guess you could make a new thread and ask users which radios work best for them on vogue.

[Touch CDMA Android Development] Theonew:
The only other thing I can think of is to have the latest radio from Windows Mobile. When you were using windows mobile, did you ever flash a custom rom? If you did then that may have fixed your problem if you were using the latest radio version. If you weren't, then I guess if you want to fix your problem, you're gonna have to flash a windows mobile 6.5.x rom with the latest radio and then flash android.

Yes I have flash my phone with WinMo before. I was using NFSFAN Rom before switching to Android 2 months ago ...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Theonew:
When you were using it, what was your radio version? If it was the latest, then it should have been 3.42.50. I read that for "Bell" users like you, the radio 3.42.50 is recommended for this installation.

did you read the whole post that i had provided before??? there isasolution to yourproblem there.

Way 3 (I know I said two ways...): There are a few

stock roms that come with new radios. One of

them can be downloaded directly from HTC and it

is for the Sprint Touch. This one comes with Radio

3.42.30

The other one is for Bell Mobility and this one

comes with Radio 3.42.50.

Why am I giving "Way 3" if the other two options

seem much easier?? I have run into the problem

where my device would not let me flash other

radios than the one that I had. SD card method

did not work and the RUU started out fine but

quits at 8% rebooting my phone and displaying

Error 328 in the RUU on the PC. Anyway, here are

the links...
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Le_Maitre:
I've read the whole post but I don't understand the 3rd way. If I click on the Bell rom with radio 3.42.50 it bring me to the HTC site and there nothing to download.

I've try to download the All Above Radios zipped. It gave me 3 files in a zip. I rename the file 3.42.50 in RUU_signed.nbh and put it in the folder of the ROMUtilityUpdate. Maybe is there I do something wrong ...

[Droid X Themes and Apps] DrakenFX:
You can create a boot animation from any type of video format even if the format is in flash (swf) what you need is a programs that convert videos to either. Jpg or. PNG file (boot animation can be done using only those two formats) ..... about adding sound to your animation yo need to know if the ROM you are running right now is capable to do audio @ boot if not you wont be able to make it work with sound.

Not sure this is right, I have saved the sequence as jpg images - 1418 of them - to a folder size of 58.4 mb with each image sized 704 X 400. Do they need to match droid x screen size to fill screen? And does my desc.txt really have to be 1418 plus lines? is there an easier way?

Thanks for any help with this, if I can do it I will post it so others might decide to use it.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] marculous:
Wait, what?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] mattmartin77:
the desc.txt file will have max prob 5 lines

my custom boot animation txt looks like this exactly, but yours would prob be a little different

480 480 15

p 1 0 part0

p 0 0 part1

(480 is the width/height; 15 is the fps; 1= #of times that part loops, 0= not freeze on last image of fps unlike the liberty boot animation which would have a 10)

part0 is a folder that contains the images that would be the non looping part, and part1 is the looping pictures folder

the .png is the file extension of the pictures
[Droid X Themes and Apps] marculous:
OH okay I get it. Can the fps be higher? Like 25? And can it not loop? It's like a minute long.

Does the phone start after the boot or when its ready? Like if the boot animation was too long would the phone start without showing it all? And do jpg files not work?
[Droid X Themes and Apps] DrakenFX:
.jpg format works as well, that what i use to make mine animations

no you dont have to add 1418 of lines create , download one of mine bootanimation and decompress the zip file you see how they work... plus DO NOT USE the NOTEPAD from windows (dont know way but android doesnt like .txt created by this notepad) and download notepad++ from here [url="http://notepad-plus-plus.org/release/5.8.7]Notepad++ (Free)[/url] use that notepad to modified the desc.txt

Okay can't get it to work right. Only plays 2 of the 20 folders, and its choppy. Changed the frame rate to 50 because it played slow. Desc.txt looks like

p 1 0 part0

p 1 0 part1

etc on up to part20

And when it played the aspect ratio was jacked up.

Tried four times.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] DrakenFX:
1450 frames is way to much for a Boot Animation (sorry if i didn't mention that before) max i have run is 390 frames @ 120 an still running very tide to the end, i dont know what app are you using to create you frames but if that app give you the options to make for sample 500 frames out of the clip you have that will be better....from there you can start your testing stage and deleted as many necessary frames to make your animation run smooth

P.S. you don't need to create 20 folders for your animation 1 folder is enought for it, 2 folders is more likely when the 2nd folder contains a loop of the animation in question
[Droid X Themes and Apps] marculous:
Oh. Crap. I read a thread said no more than 3mb per folder. The thing is, I didn't want to loop it.

Let me try this,

Can I make a boot animation that's close to a minute long with an avi as the source, have it play full screen with audio and look good? And if not, how close to what I want can I get?

I'm on apex 1.4.1 and I used avidemux 2.5 to make jpegs from the avi selection.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] DrakenFX:
actually that really doesnt matter cuz i have some animation over 10 MB in a single folder and still working like a charm.....well like i said 2 folders is more like doing a loop out of one of them, having an AVI as boot animation that will be sweet is Google implement that feature in near future on Android using avi, mpg2 or mp4 as boot animation.

i heard (not sure) that Apex CAN run Boot animation with, i have no way to test it cuz im Running Liberty 1.5 (1.75 very soon) ....

P.S. if you want i can help you out with your animation just send me the Link of the video and ill create one and you can have that one as a reference for future animation of yours
[Droid X Themes and Apps] mattmartin77:
well you can have it be a minute long if you want, but i think that is a long time personally, my custom one is pushing 15 seconds and i think it is long. i was told audio doesnt work on liberty rom. the audio must be named "Android_Audio.mp3" without quotes. it is going to be in the same folder on your phone where the bootanimation.zip is kept, /data/local make sure that the audio file is not in the .zip. the desc must contain a line that says "part 0 1 android" also without quotes. btw 1400 frames is not at all recommendable
[Droid X Themes and Apps] marculous:
I know apex can run audio at boot, 1.4.1 boots with the thx sound playing. I will send you a link later this evening with the avi. And thanks.
[Droid X Themes and Apps] marculous:
I could go with it being shorter, and it doesn't have to include audio, but I know it can.

I have a Captivate that I recently flashed Di11i's 7.1.1 to, before that I had flashed my first ROM which was Serendipity 6.2. Both times I have found that I don't get incoming calls. People calling me get 2-3 rings, and then a traditional "busy signal" sound. On my end, either the phone vibrates once but the screen doesnt change from whatever screen I'm on. Or, The screen goes black like its going to the incoming call screen, but the black screens only flashes and goes away, as does a force close message box that goes away quickly without me clicking it.

Everything else on my phone works as far as I can tell, I've been running my current ROM for about 5 days without issues other than this one. This same exact problem also happened when I flashed Serendipity 6.2 (which I only kept for like a day because of this problem)
